[Do you want to post leaving through the gates, or just end it here?]

Two of the leaders stayed while one ran off in another direction. Then, the two escorts took Misuki and Deil to the Chunin exams.

Tsukiakari Hikaru

Following Havik through the dusty and windy streets, Hikaru couldn't help but look around like a tourist while keep a close pace behind Havik. He was still mapping everything in his head, trying to make mental notes on how to not get lost later. Once they arrived at the restaurant, he followed behind and instantly changed his posture now that they were in a public place where he may be seen. His posture straightened and his face took on a stoic look as he conducted himself with pure dignity and poise when following behind the waitress to their table, taking in the smells of the restaurant, but not responding to them.

As he took his seat, he began to look over the menu as Havik gave his drink order, to which Hikaru followed with a simple request, "Jasmine tea please, two cups, and please be sure that the tea is hot." Hikaru's royalty always came out at dinner as he held himself postured precisely and began arranging the table very specifically, as it should have been done in the first place. However, anyone who knew custom would see that Hikaru's way of setting the table was rather strange in comparison to the norm in this area. He picked up the menu again and immediately turned to the sushi pages, which were extensive much to his delight. "Oh good, they have a wide selection." His eyes didn't even glance at the prices, which were rather high for sushi, as fresh fish were harder to come by in this area.

Hikaru hadn't even truly noticed that he had changed... the manners of a public dining exhibition had been so ingrained in him that the change took place almost unconsciously. Only when he was on the battlefield, amongst other warriors did he ever feel like he could drop the royalty routine. On the field of battle, your status didn't matter... you got cut and could die just the same as anyone else. It was freeing to Hikaru... he could be himself there, as he had no fear that others would see him and say his actions were undignified. he still took nothing more seriously then responsibility on the battlefield, and the safety of his fellow warriors, but it was still liberating to the young prince.

Looking up from his menu, he understood what he was doing and felt somewhat out of place, and felt that perhaps it would be best to do as Havik said... "sorry...". After all, being in the village itself was like a battlefield setting for him, and no one knew of his lineage, so there was nothing he could do to hurt his family name, as few people had probably even heard of them. still, the possibility was there, so though he did relax slightly, slumping down a bit as he put a small grin on his face..."I guess it's just how I was raised. But you're right, I apologize. though sadly I have to admit that most of the beating you received you allowed yourself to take. Hopefully one day it won't have the chance to take it so easy against me in combat."

"I couldn't agree more!" Hikaru poured himself some of the tea he was brought and was about to take a sip as he watched Havik gulp his down in an incredibly uncivilized way. He kept his inner disgust well hidden though as he took a controlled and elegant sip of his tea before noticing that Havik was indicating that he was the one to order. Looking frantically at the menu, he simply couldn't decide so in a rash decision, he simply decided that choices were irrelevant and he would just go with the simple option.

"So many choices... let's just go with one of everything. that way Havik here gets the full spread of options." the waitress seemed shocked by the order as she must have calculated the cost quickly in her head and wished to warn Hikaru, since she began to give him other options... "Sumimasen, but we have combo plates you know, it might be a little less expensive if you just choo--" ... but Hikaru was quick to cut her off, "Don't you worry about that ma'am, it's alright, one of everything will be fine." Putting the menu down, he then waited for Havik to order, but the waitress took off quickly, knowing that the kitchen would need some time to fill such a large order.

Havik set down the milk carton wiped his cheek and llet a sigh of relief pass his lips. He looked at Hikaru and noticed he was still being conservitave, and once the waitress warned him about the rice and he blew it off as if it ment nothing Havik connected the dots. Hikura must be some rich royal family, but if that was so then why was he trained in the way of the sword, and why was he in the sand. Havik remebered the attack on the village just as he became a Genin and thought that this could be another atemp to take out the sand, with the Kage being a Bijuu host their were sure to be plenty of people who wanted him dead. After the waitress left with the order Havik said "Ok spill why are you in the sand, you have been trained in the way of the sword and you have money, a good amount by the way you seem to spend it. I will be honest and blunt, their are people who would love to see people like me, and the Kage dead for what we are, I am not saying you are planning a attack how ever were attacked not to long ago. So please will you share some of you past with me?" Havik spoke in a low tone so that their shouldn't be anyone butting in due to the nose of a crowded resturant.

Just as he finished speaking Cobra wlked over and started talking pulling Haviks attention to him, He lisened to him as he spoke and when he jumped onto the table he let a smile slip, Havik nodded as Cobra expalained the puzzle and took the words to heart. Havik took the scroll with a nod and said "Well thank you sir" and then Cobra was gone leaving Haviks question to linger in the air.

Havik lised as Hikura explained about his family, Havik felt a bit bad for the accusations however he was sure Hikura would have done the same if Havik was in his home. Waiting a few second before speaking Havik said

"You must understand that the Sand Village is all I have, I have no family, and the only freinds I have are the ones I have met threw being a ninja, so when someone from a diffrent land coe hear with money and fighting skills that can only be gained threw combat, then it leaves me to wonder about them. Their was an attack on the village on my first day as a Genin and we have yet to trake down the attackers so please forgive me if I offended you, but you you not do the same if I were in your home?"

Havik spoke in a kindly tone trying to make sure that Hikaru understood his motives for the brash questions, he didn't want this to compromise a freindship they might make in the furture, and with what Hikura just told Havik, he was sure the Hikura would understand.
